    I hated Vile Spirits on release... not sure how much they've been rebalanced since I've had them turned off and I haven't paid that much attention.

    Aside from that I'm good with pretty much...

    I guess I'll play some more to see if I did something dumb like not saving adom.cfg. If it reoccurs I'll file a bug report. Thanks!
  6. Failed to deactivate Vile Spirits (player ghosts) on Mac?

    Just started playing on Mac. Playing melee characters and got obliterated by an early vile spirit so decided to turn them off.

    Only 2% of Steam players have an ADOM win, compared to say, the 23% that hit level 10. So I'd say a huge proportion of the player base struggle to get far into the game.

    Not a roguelike, no. I suspect that you would enjoy Planescape: Torment (and the upcoming Numenera: Torment) but they're graphical RPGs.

    I played it some. It was fun for a while, but I could never consistently stay alive like I can in ADOM - I always seemed to be prone to seemingly unfair YASDs. Maybe I just wasn't as good as I...
